Making Call of Duty work.

Wilko · **Making Call of Duty work. -** 12-05-2003, 09:12 AM

I go into the game, and it goes through the programmers and the Intro movie ok, but when i try and play, the screen goes all messed up, and i have to kill the program. Obviously, it's a graphics thing, but what? I've got DirectX 9, and suitable video card drivers. Any ideas as to what's fucking it up?

I have a Geforce 3 TI card and that works,
I have a Geforce 2 MX at work and I can experiment to see if CoD doesn't like the GF-2s.

Thanks, dudes. I'll try getting the latest video card drivers from Nvidia.

Yeah, other games using the Q3 Engine (MOHAA, Q3, etc) work fine, and no, i haven't overclocked my card

Thanks for the assistance, Lads. Turns out it was my Video drivers. No Biggie rolleyes:
